Kubernetes 1.33 “Octarine” Released: Native Sidecars and In-Place Pod Resizing

Kubernetes 1.33 rolls out as the hero of sidecar containers, smoothing out their lifecycle wrinkles. Now, sidecars launch before and wrap up after the main event—your app containers. Meanwhile, in-place pod resizing steps up to beta status. Tweak resources without nuking your app’s smooth run—a gift for stateful apps and databases that hate disruptions.
